The Only Way to Stop a Bad Fetus With a Gun....
Bad strategy. A fetus with a gun will fire the gun in case of an attempted abortion, which will in most cases kill the woman, therefore killing the fetus, or severly injure the woman, in which case she's most likely to have a miscarriage, therefore killing the fetus.
Then again, nobody ever accused the pro-gun and the pro-life lobbies of being logical.

SL Letter of the Day: Emission Possible.
@ 17 "paragliding with no training remorse"?
I'm no expert, but I'd guess that not too many people with severe brain damage get to feel remorse (which, clearly, is the only positive thing about suffering severe brain damage).

@ 2 - Beat me to it.
I usually lose my erection at the moment of insertion, but it comes back with a bit of stimulation, and the orgasm is indeed very intense, as you say.

@ 52 - There are many reasons to doubt "ancient sources" like Origen and Tertullian, the most obvious being that they were born more than a century after the fact. They had heard the legends that were being passed around and did nothing more than help spread them.

@ 12 - What a weird, passive-agressive way to play victim. I never capitalize anything that has to do with religions (note the small "c" for christian a bit lower). Religions do not deserve capital letters (except at the start of a sentence, of course).

Sorry Dan, you're wrong when you say that the apostolic succession stretches all the way back to Saint Peter. Nothing stretches all the way back to Peter.
As a disciple of Jesus, Peter was a jew who wanted to reform judaism (like Jesus himself), not to start a new religion. Paul of Tarsus is the one who decided to create a new religion - against the wishes of Peter and Santiago, Jesus's brother, who were the leaders of the christian movement. Peter died a few decades before there were such things as bishops, popes, etc.
That is, if any of those people actually lived (although their existence is better documented than that of Jesus himself).
Any priest, bishop, archbishop or pope who claims a direct link to Peter (and therefore a near-direct link to Jesus) is a liar.

Thatcher's Death: Two Questions.
@ 30 - Yes, thanks to Thatcher. She finally did the only decent thing she could have done with her life: die.
Now go and learn how to spell.
